Hi Brianna, thank you for your feedback. For the gold pieces, we do recommend to avoid water.As they are sterling silver with gold plated, they need some extra care. Actually water it's not the major issue, it's the shampoo and sweat. Our gold piece are gold pated with an extra layer of protection on top. Some of the shampoo or different person's sweat will destroy the protection layer, which will accelerate the gold fading or oxidising. As the rob part was inside the ear which might impact by the residual shampoo or sweat.
